That's all from our side!

Titas Sadhu | Player Of The Match:바카라 웹사이트Since I won three prizes today (chuckles), it has become a tradition for whoever wins this honour to have a party. I have three assignments due. It's been a long series for me since I've sat out the Test and ODI series. Today I am delighted to capitalise. I was fortunate to get two wickets in the second over on a decent track. The dew played바카라 웹사이트an important role here.

Alyssa Healy | Australia Captain:바카라 웹사이트We didn't play very well; we left a lot on the pitch with the bat and didn't get off to a good start with the ball. We lost a few wickets throughout the game and were unable to gain any momentum as a result. We want to keep putting the large totals out there while also reacting to the environment. They reached perfect lengths early on and made it difficult for us. We'll have to react and tweak a few methods as a result.

Harmanpreet Kaur | India Captain:바카라 웹사이트We performed admirably in all three departments. We are putting forth a lot of effort in the fielding department. Today, everyone is having a good time fielding, which makes me extremely pleased. Our fielding coach deserves credit; he chose Jemi to slot at backward point, and everyone understood their fielding strategy, and we achieved the results we desired. I just told my bowlers to keep working hard and keeping it tight.바카라 웹사이트We were ready to select a third spinner, but at the last minute, we chose to go with the extra seamer, and we supported her (Titas Sadhu) and got the results. Our bowling squad bowled superbly tonight, and we want to replicate that performance in the upcoming game.
